Dan Hardy does not believe Paddy Pimblett is ready for high-level lightweight fighters like Dan Hooker.
According to 'The Outlaw', Pimblett still has a lot to learn in terms of the technicalities of the fight sport. During his appearance on Ariel Helwani's The MMA Hour, Hardy said: Digging 18 Inch Trench
Hardy added that the 27-year-old should not be fighting big names in the lightweight division just yet. According to 'The Outlaw', L'udovit Klein would make for an ideal opponent for 'The Baddy's next fight.
Watch the full interview below:
After winning his first two fights in the promotion, Paddy Pimblett received a step up in competition in the form of Jordan Leavitt at UFC Fight Night: Blaydes vs. Aspinall this past weekend.
'The Baddy' rose to the occasion and submitted 'The Monkey King' with a rear-naked choke in the second round.
Despite having just three fights in the UFC, Pimblett has gained massive popularity in the sport. If the 27-year-old continues to win fights in spectacular fashion, he might become one of the biggest stars in the promotion.
